A collection of services used for packet research and analysis.

  • Core: core code shared by all other parts of the suite, contains useful utilities and APIs that each service needs in order to run and work in unison.
  • Collector: runs on the collection node and sends packet data collected from the desired NIC over the network to the aggregation node
    • Options:
      • --interface - Interface to collect from
      • --choose-interface - Pick an interface to collect from instead of choosing
      • --buffer-size - The PCAP buffer size to use
      • --filter - The PCAP filter to use
      • --stats-window - Time (in seconds) before a new stats dump is created
      • --redis-host - Hostname of the redis server used for cross-node communication
      • --redis-port - Port of the redis server used for cross-node communication
  • Aggregator: runs on the aggregation node and handles incoming data from collector nodes
    • Options:
      • --out - The file to print collected data to
      • --redis-host - Hostname of the redis server used for cross-node communication
      • --redis-port - Port of the redis server used for cross-node communication
  • Daemon: Runs on any managed nodes without direct shell access. Receives commands to perform predefined actions (restart, get CPU usage, etc).
